The Old Twin Towers

Those of you who visited us when we lived in London will remember the view that we had from the second floor of the house. We looked out across Northwest London and could see Wembley Stadium in the distance. We were still living there when the old stadium was demolished and watched as the new stadium slowly begin to take shape. The arch that marked the skyline above the new stadium was an ample replacement for the old iconic Twin Towers.
Today, the stadium was finally completed to a degree that the developer could hand over the keys. After many long delays in its construction, Wembley is already being touted as the best sports venue in the world.
During this year's Super Bowl festivities it was announced that the NFL will be bringing a regular season game to London and the new stadium on October 28th. The teams will be the Miami Dolphins and the New York Giants. Rumour has it that they thought about having the Chicago Bears come over, but the CIA and Pentagon were worried that if the Brits saw how weak they were on defense, they might decide it was time to re-start the Revolutionary War.
